I've been playing with SketchUp7 and am now wondering if
there's a browser widget of some sort that will allow
viewers to use an "orbit" and "zoom" tools to see all
sides of a rendering...

I'm thinking that it'd be neat to include 3D-viewable
models on a web page - and that it'd make for some
fantastic "how-to" pages.

Free and Pro versions ...

That one looks very nice but it needs Sketchup Pro. I'm
using the free version...

Me too, but it sounds as if the Teleporter S/W may be
exactly what I was looking for. Some of the stuff I'd like
to embed in web pages is intended only for perusal and
provoking thought - where providing a complete "live"
SketchUp model would short-circuit the learning I want to
encourage.

I've downloaded both the free SketchUp Viewer and the free
TelePorter software, and will play with both.

device. g ]

Thanks for the suggestions and...

A very happy holiday season to all!


The download I pointed you to creates jpg's at a user defined
degree interval. You are able to drag the pictures so it
appears to rotate. I *doesn't* expose your original model.
What it is lacking is the zoom function you were looking for.
